A look at Linux with the latest Microsoft system
Will your strategies of coexistence work for the newest version of Windows? We examined Windows Vista with an emphasis on issues of Linux compatibility.
Windows XP has been the stan dard Microsoft desktop operat ing system for six years now. Users have grown accustomed to XP, and they have learned to cope with the prob lems – especially in a Linux context. Vista [1], which was announced way back in 2001, is now set to replace XP, so you can expect a new round of Linux compatibility issues for any Windows system you plan to upgrade.

La Gomera
Lovely little place where Columbus stopped for water on his voyages. Went for a walk and found a bar with wifi. When we got back to the ship we had a very late lunch at about 2.15. Didn't bother with a sweet as afternoon tea started at 2.30 so had a tea cake and cakes instead. In the evening went to the dancing after champagne at the jewellery store. We'd got an invite but didn't buy anything. Then late night ...
Banana biking
Today was our final biking so it started early at 8am. The tour of the ocean and banana plantations was amazing. This island continues to try and make a profit thru bananas but the competition is tough. The route was 11.5 miles with winding, rolling roads all along the sea. We got back to turn everything in and begin our wind down. Our last lunch was at the pool in beautiful sunny ...

Dinner was in the hotel banquet room featuring delicious watercress soup, cod, pork and chocolate. To top the evening off Billie had composed a fantastic song to the jingle bell tune. The group has been a great one and everyone headed to bed very happy ready for our last ride in the ...
Our epic travel day
... ride close to the top. Our lunch stop was in a hotel in the middle of the park and featured a full buffet of salads and meats. Leaving the lunch stop the road is very very rough. It was like being bounced downhill for several miserable miles. While I was biking along due to the amount of bumping my bike bag fell off my seat and landed on the back wheel. It was a lot like having the brakes dragging you to a stop. I managed to pull over and ...

APP OF THE DAY: Braid review (Mac)
If there is one app you download today to test out on your brand new OSX Lion powered machine make it Braid. The indie developed game is currently priced in at £2.99 in the app store, making it one of the most affordable and best gaming experiences currently on Mac.
Braid tells the tale of a time travelling hero called Tim who is trying his best to save a princess from an evil monster. You progress through the game by collecting jigsaw pieces and putting them together in miniature puzzle games found in each stage.
While it may seem simple on the face of it, Tim's time manipulating powers make for a highly inventive and challenging platformer, well worth a look for those in the mood for a retro gaming fix.
- Format
- Mac, Windows, Xbox 360, PS3, Linux
- Price
- £2.99
- Where
- Mac app store
Once you have Braid downloaded and up and running the first thing that will strike you is the games art direction. Some like the way the game looks, other more graphical aficionados may not be so impressed. Either way it definitely looks different.
From there you can go straight into gameplay, which is a mix of platforming and puzzle solving. Enemies can be used to gain height bonuses when jumping by stomping on a series of them in quick succesion. Initially getting the timing right is extremely tough, but once you nail it things get very rewarding.
You then need to collect jigsaw pieces to build up a picture and complete stages. Each puzzle is different, with them getting progressively more mind-bending as the game goes on. Believe us when we say that towards the end things get insanely complex.
Special mention has to go to the games music, which adds a bizarelly relaxing feel to what is actually quite a strenuous game. The soft piano tends to counteract the stress caused by feeling your way through a difficult time related puzzle.
Braid is not a massively demanding game, which is why we recommend giving it a go with a new MacBook Air (although Sandy Bridge means they can manage a lot more). The moving backgrounds and cartoon look definitely helps add atmosphere to things but also looks great on Apple's bright and contrasty displays.
For those yet to give it a try, Braid is an adventure that comes highly recommended and one which at £2.99 seems ridiculous to miss out on.
Fan of Braid? Or do you like to keep things big-budget?

Even by the degraded standards of early-'80s slasher films, The Incubus is pretty hard to sit through. A grumpy John Cassavetes plays a small-town doctor investigating a series of sex murders with a supernatural twist; the only other name actor is John Ireland, and everybody else is atrocious. Most of the genre's conventions are trotted out, albeit at a glacial pace: shower scene, young couple swimming at an isolated lake. The one quirky element, a suggestion of unhealthy intimacy between Cassavetes and his teenage daughter, might have creepy potential if it weren't so obviously a red herring. To his credit, Cassavetes passes through the entire film looking as though he would like to disappear into a corner. This low-budget Canadian offering is not to be confused with Incubus, the daffy William Shatner picture shot in the language of Esperanto, which is actually pretty fun. --Robert Horton

Article: Evaluation of Cartilage Invasion by Laryngeal and Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Dual-Energy CT[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Purpose: To evaluate the clinical usefulness of dual-energy computed tomography (CT) with weighted-average (WA) images and iodine overlay (IO) images in the evaluation of laryngeal cartilage invasion in patients with laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Materials and methods: The institutional review board approved this retrospective study, and written comprehensive consent was obtained from all patients. Seventy-two consecutive patients underwent 128-section dual-source dual-energy CT to stage laryngeal (n=27) or hypopharyngeal (n=45) cancer. Three observers who were blinded to the patients' clinical histories and histopathologic findings evaluated cartilage invasion on WA images alone or in combination with IO images (nonossified cartilages were selectively evaluated on IO images) by using a five-point scale. Thirty of the 72 patients (42%) underwent surgery, and findings from histopathologic examination in those patients were used as the standard of reference for the evaluation of diagnostic performance with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Interobserver reproducibility was calculated with κ statistics. Results: For thyroid cartilage, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the WA plus IO images was marginally larger than that for WA images alone (AUC=0.957 vs 0.870, respectively; P=.075). The specificity of WA plus IO images was significantly superior to that of WA images alone (96% vs 70%, respectively; P=.031), with no compromise to the sensitivity (86% for both). For thyroid and cricoid cartilages, the interobserver reproducibility was higher for diagnoses made with WA plus IO images (κ=0.68-0.72 and 0.64-0.79, respectively) than for those made with WA images alone (κ=0.29-0.56 and 0.20-0.64, respectively). Conclusion: Combined analysis of WA and IO images obtained with dual-energy CT improves the diagnostic performance and interobserver reproducibility of evaluations of laryngeal cartilage invasion by SCC.Radiology 09/2012; 265(2):488-496.

ABSTRACT: A 69-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to a liver tumor that was incidentally noted on ultrasound (US). US revealed a pedunculated mass of 5 cm in diameter, with a heterogeneous echo pattern. On arterial phase dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), a tiny enhancing dot in the upper aspect of the mass was seen; whereas, the main portion of the lesion appeared as hypoattenuating. The tumor was of low intensity on T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images, and showed slightly heterogeneous high intensity on T2-weighted MR images. The most characteristic feature of the tumor was its exophytic appearance. On post-gadolinium hepatic arterial dominant-phase MR images, the tumor showed nodular enhancement centrally, with progressive spread of enhancement on later images. Angiography showed dilatation of the right posterior inferior branch of the hepatic artery and C-shaped opacification. Since we could not rule out malignancy for these nonspecific radiologic findings, a partial resection of the liver was carried out, resulting in a pathological diagnosis of hepatic hemangioma. This hemangioma had marked hyalinization and fibrosis, causing a heterogeneous appearance on MR images. The tumor presented an exophytic appearance, which caused some diagnostic confusion.Radiation Medicine 09/2005; 23(5):371-5.
Article: Prognostic factors in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated by transcatheter arterial embolization.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Transcatheter arterial embolization induces marked antitumor response in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, but the survival benefit of transcatheter arterial embolization remains to be determined. This study investigated prognostic factors in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated by transcatheter arterial embolization. A total of 128 consecutive patients with non-resectable hepatocellular carcinoma, who had undergone transcatheter arterial embolization between May 1990 and August 1998, were analyzed to investigate prognostic factors. Median survival time and survival proportions at 1, 3 and 5 years were 3.3 years, 92.0, 54.6 and 23.4%, respectively. By multivariate analysis using the accelerated failure time model, age <60 years, hepatitis C virus antibody positivity, serum albumin >3.5 g/dl, absence of portal vein invasion and serum alpha-fetoprotein level <400 ng/ml were significantly associated with favorable survival. For clinical application, we also propose a prognostic equation with combination of specific prognostic factors, by which survival curves of each patient could be predicted directly. The findings of the current study may be helpful in predicting the life expectancy of hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated by transcatheter arterial embolization and in designing future clinical trials of transcatheter arterial embolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology 11/2002; 32(11):455-60. · 2.02 Impact Factor
Article: Hepatic nodules with early enhancement during computed tomography portography: Report of six cases[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To study the clinicopathologic characteristics of hepatic nodular lesions with high attenuation (increased portal blood flow) compared with surrounding hepatic parenchyma on computed tomography (CT) during arterial portography (CTAP). For six lesions found in six patients demonstrated as a high-attenuated mass by CTAP, CT during hepatic arteriography (CTHA; n = 3 patients), digital subtraction hepatic arteriography (n = 6) and conventional helical CT (n = 6) were evaluated retrospectively and compared with histopathologic findings (n = 4). Pathologic diagnosis was atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, nodule-in-nodule hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in one resected lesion each and overt HCC in two biopsied lesions. Two patients did not undergo any therapy and were followed up. The average size of lesions was 2.2 cm (range 1.2-3.5 cm). The CTAP revealed high attenuation in all six lesions; entirely within the lesion (n = 4 lesions) or peripherally with a central low attenuation (n = 2). In contrast, CTHA showed low attenuated lesions; entirely within the mass (n = 2) or peripherally with a central high-attenuated spot (n = 1). Hepatic arteriogram revealed only two hypervascular lesions; entirely and partially in one each. In the arterial phase of helical CT, all but one lesion were iso- or hypo-attenuated. In two patients who were followed up to 39 and 55 months without therapy, neither tumor growth nor hemodynamic change of the lesion was recognized on CT. Even though the incidence of hepatic nodular lesions demonstrated as high attenuating on CTAP is low, all but one lesion in the current series showed iso- or hypo-attenuation on CTHA and/or helical CT, suggesting the hemodynamics are reciprocal between CTAP and CTHA. One exceptional lesion that showed high attenuation on both CTAP and conventional CT was pathologically advanced HCC. Based on the follow-up study of two untreated patients, this kind of lesion with high attenuation on CTAP seems to grow slowly.Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology 08/2002; 17(7):779-84.

Article: Sensitivity of superselective arteriography for small hepatocellular carcinoma compared with proximal arteriography and computed tomography during superselective arteriography.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To obtain successful arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we evaluated the sensitivity of proximal arteriography, superselective (subsegmental or more distal branch) arteriography and computed tomography (CT) during superselective arteriography and assessed the method for the injection of contrast medium. Thirty-two patients with 38 HCCs (< or = 5 cm) with a mean diameter of 2.2 cm underwent digital subtraction arteriography of proximal and superselective arteriography. In addition, they also had helical CT during superselective arteriography. The contrast medium was injected with a mechanical injector (n = 6 lesions) or by hand (n = 32) for superselective arteriography and CT during superselective arteriography. The amount of contrast medium used for superselective arteriography and CT during superselective arteriography with the mechanical injector was 3.5 times and 9 times that with manual injection, respectively. Overall, 31 lesions (81.6%) were detected by proximal arteriography, 25 (65.8%) by superselective arteriography and 35 (92.1%) by CT during superselective arteriography. CT during superselective arteriography was significantly superior to superselective arteriography (P = 0.005). In both studies, manual injection of contrast medium had a significantly higher sensitivity than mechanical injection (P = 0.013). To detect small HCC, CT during superselective arteriography showed significantly higher sensitivity than superselective arteriography. Manual injection of contrast medium was significantly superior to mechanical injection. Therefore, manual injection CT during superselective arteriography is recommended for accurately targeted, transarterial chemoembolization therapy.Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology 06/2002; 32(6):191-5. · 2.02 Impact Factor
Article: Transcatheter Arterial Embolization with Zinostatin Stimalamer for Hepatocellular Carcinoma[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Zinostatin stimalamer (SMANCS) is a lipophilic intra-arterial chemotherapeutic agent for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In our previous study, transcatheter arterial infusion chemotherapy using SMANCS for HCC showed a response rate of 20%. In an effort to obtain a superior anti-tumor effect against HCC, we conducted a phase II study of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) using SMANCS and gelatin sponge in 50 chemotherapy-naive patients with HCC. Four milligrams SMANCS plus 4 ml lipiodol emulsion was injected into the hepatic artery, followed by an injection of gelatin sponge. The responses were evaluated by computed tomography (CT) 1 month after treatment and thereafter every 3-4 months. One patient (2%) showed complete response and 15 patients (30%) had partial response resulting in an overall response rate of 32% (16/50; 95% confidence interval 19-45%). In 33 patients (66%), the disease remained stable, and 1 patient (2%) showed progressive disease. In 35 patients (70%), the rate of necrotic area to whole tumor was more than 50% according to the evaluation method using lipiodol accumulation in CT. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 90, 55 and 19%, respectively. Grade 3 hematological toxicity was observed as thrombocytopenia in 2 patients (4%). Grade 3 and 4 non-hematological toxicity (liver dysfunction) occurred in 17 (34%) and 7 patients (14%), respectively. TAE using SMANCS, which was well tolerated, may be an effective treatment for advanced HCC.Oncology 02/2002; 62(3):228-33. DOI:10.1159/000059570 · 2.42 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: A better understanding of the growth rate of pancreatic carcinoma is important in determining its natural course and in evaluating the effects of treatment or prognosis. The authors studied the growth rate of pancreatic carcinoma and the relation between its tumor volume doubling time (TVDT) and host survival. Nine patients with pancreatic carcinoma who underwent serial examinations by helical computed tomography but no anticancer treatment during the observation period were included. The TVDTs were calculated by measuring the tumor size on the helical computed tomograms. The mean TVDT of the nine primary lesions of pancreatic carcinoma was 159 +/- 67 days (median, 144 days), and the range was 64 to 255 days. The correlation between TVDT and survival time was positive and significant (r = 0.793, p = 0.011). This preliminary study suggests that examination of TVDT may be useful in the clinical evaluation of prognosis for patients with pancreatic carcinoma in certain situations.Pancreas 06/2001; 22(4):366-9.

Article: Is CT during arterial portography useful for the preoperative evaluation of liver metastases from pancreatic carcinoma?[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We evaluated computed tomography during arterial portography (CTAP) for the preoperative evaluation of liver metastases from pancreatic carcinoma. Thirty-one patients with invasive ductal carcinoma of the pancreas underwent CTAP for evaluation of liver metastasis. Diagnostic accuracy of CTAP was compared with that of intravenous contrast-enhanced CT (IVCT). In this series, both CTAP and IVCT showed the same diagnostic accuracy for the patients. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and overall accuracy of both CT examinations for detecting liver metastases were 60% (three of five), 100% (26 of 26), 100% (three of three), 93% (26 of 28), and 94% (29 of 31), respectively. CTAP did not confer any advantage over IVCT for the preoperative evaluation of liver metastases from pancreatic carcinoma.Pancreas 04/2001; 22(2):200-2.

Article: Targeted transarterial oily chemoembolization for small foci of hepatocellular carcinoma using a unified helical CT and angiography system: Analysis of factors affecting local recurrence and survival rates[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We assessed the local recurrence rate after a single targeted transarterial oily chemoembolization for small hepatocellular carcinoma with the unified helical CT and angiography system and analyzed the factors affecting the local recurrence rate and survival rate with Cox proportional hazards model. For 54 consecutive patients with 71 small hepatocellular carcinomas (< or = 5 cm) with no more than two associated lesions, targeted oily chemoembolization was performed with an emulsion of doxorubicin hydrochloride mixed with iodized oil or a suspension of zinostatin stimalamer followed by gelatin sponge particles. When local recurrence or a new lesion appeared, follow-up targeted oily chemoembolization was performed. For 52 of 71 lesions, the catheterization to a subsegmental or more distal feeding artery could be performed. Local recurrence was recognized in 33.2% at 1 year and 37.8% at 2 and 3 years. The significant factors that affected local recurrence were tumor size (p = 0.005) and degree of deposition of iodized oil within the lesion (p = 0.049). The survival rates at 1, 2, and 3 years were 93.3%, 77.1%, and 77.1%, respectively. The significant factors affecting survival rate were tumor thrombus in large vessels (p = 0.0001), appearing after the first chemoembolization, and maximum tumor size (p = 0.022). Single targeted transarterial oily chemoembolization with the unified helical CT and angiography system had a low local recurrence rate for small hepatocellular carcinoma, and follow-up embolization resulted in a good survival rate. Tumor size along with degree of intratumoral iodized oil deposition and tumor thrombus along with maximum tumor size were significant factors affecting local recurrence and survival rate, respectively.American Journal of Roentgenology 04/2001; 176(3):681-8. · 2.73 Impact Factor

Article: Angiographic assessment of the right hepatic artery for encasement by hilar cholangiocarcinoma: Comparison between antero-posterior and right anterior oblique projections[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate the usefulness of right anterior oblique (RAO) arteriography for evaluating encasement of the right hepatic artery (RHA) by hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Celiac arteriography was performed in both the antero-posterior (AP) and RAO projection in ten patients with cholangiocarcinoma. The lengths of the arteries between the bifurcation of the anterior and posterior branch of the liver and the following points were measured: (a) the bifurcation of the left and right hepatic artery (AP-LR), (b) the bifurcation of the proper hepatic artery and the gastroduodenal artery (AP-PG). Additionally, image quality in investigating the invasion of the RHA was evaluated. On the AP images, the average lengths of AP-LR and AP-PG were 24.5 +/- 5.1 mm and 30.0 +/- 4.9 mm, respectively. On RAO images, the lengths were 28.2 +/- 4.6 mm and 32.7 +/- 4.8 mm, respectively. Every length was different between the two projections (p < 0.01). In 6 of 10 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma, images in RAO projections were superior to AP images for evaluation of encasement. We conclude that angiography obtained in the RAO projection yields images that are superior to those obtained in the conventional AP projection for assessment of RHA encasement.CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology 01/2001; 24(1):37-41.

Article: Selective intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT of pancreaticoduodenal tumors: Early clinical experience in evaluating blood supply and detectability[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to compare CT with selective intraarterial contrast enhancement with IV contrast-enhanced CT for diagnostic usefulness in the detection of tumors in the pancreaticoduodenal region. intraarterial contrast enhanced CT was performed in 36 patients with tumors of the pancreaticoduodenal region. Feeding arteries of the tumors and distribution of hyperattenuating areas on intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT were analyzed with various routes of contrast material injections. The intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT scans were compared with the IV contrast-enhanced CT scans. In all 29 patients with standard vascular anatomy, the right cephalic portion of the pancreatic head was enhanced on CT during common hepatic or gastroduodenal arteriography and the left caudal portion was enhanced on CT during superior mesenteric arteriography. The enhanced areas were complementary to each other in the whole pancreatic head, including the tumor. Tumor conspicuity from the surrounding pancreatic tissue on intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT was not superior to that on IV contrast-enhanced CT in all but four patients with cystic tumors. After intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT, three patients with tumors less invasive than pancreatic ductal carcinoma underwent local resection of their lesions. Intraarterial contrast-enhanced CT for pancreaticoduodenal tumors has potential technical problems and is not valuable in improving the detectability of tumors other than cystic lesions because the enhancement of the wall and septa of the tumor is emphasized. However, the feeding artery of the tumor and its surrounding tissue were clearly depicted.American Journal of Roentgenology 08/2000; 175(1):91-7. · 2.73 Impact Factor

Article: Evaluation of the Therapeutic Effect of Transcatheter Arterial Embolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) has been widely performed for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the method of evaluating the therapeutic effect of TAE has not been established. We examined the rate of necrotic area to whole tumor (TN) by CT, the tumor regression rate (TR) and the reduction rate in serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels in patients with HCC who received hepatic resection within 3 months after TAE. In the evaluation of TN, the lipiodol accumulation in tumor was regarded as being necrotic. Rates of necrotic area, which were also examined pathologically (PN) in resected tumors, were compared with TN, TR and AFP reduction rates, respectively. Eighty-eight patients were enrolled in this study, and there was a significant positive correlation between TN and PN (r = 0.80, p < 0.001). Although TR significantly correlated to PN (p = 0.001), the correlation coefficient between them was low (r = 0.34). The correlation coefficients between AFP reduction rate and PN was 0.76 (p < 0.001) in 26 patients (30%) with an AFP level >/=200 ng/ml before TAE. The evaluation method using lipiodol accumulation in CT is the most useful for assessing the therapeutic effect of TAE, particularly when a sufficiently long interval exists between TAE and the evaluation, because of the highest correlation coefficient between TN and PN, and the availability of TN for all patients. The reduction rate in serum AFP levels was also useful in patients with AFP levels >200 ng/ml before treatment.Oncology 06/2000; 58(4):293-9. DOI:10.1159/000012115 · 2.42 Impact Factor
Article: Hilar cholangiocarcinoma evaluated by three-dimensional CT cholangiography and rotating cine cholangiography[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate the usefulness of three-dimensional cholangiography and rotating cine cholangiography in depicting the anatomy of the hilar bile duct and tumor extension, and in planning surgical procedures for hilar cholangiocarcinomas. Five patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and obstructive jaundice who underwent percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage followed by resection were serially examined by cine cholangiography and three-dimensional cholangiography which were reconstructed from a helical computed tomography scan. Tumor extension to the bile ducts was prospectively diagnosed and the resection margin was planned using both cine and three-dimensional cholangiograms. The histological evaluation of the resected specimens were compared with preoperative findings of cholangiograms. The three-dimensional cholangiograms from vertical projection demonstrated the bile duct anatomy with excellent image quality. To assess tumor invasion to the intrahepatic bile ducts, cine cholangiograms from lateral and oblique projections were necessary. Selection of the surgical procedure was influenced by preoperative evaluations of the lesion on both three-dimensional and cine cholangiograms. Histologically, the resected margin was free from tumor in all cases. Three-dimensional and cine cholangiography allowed accurate assessment of the biliary system in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma, which was helpful for planning the surgical procedure.Hepato-gastroenterology 01/2000; 47(33):615-20. · 0.93 Impact Factor
Article: Blood supply to the pancreatic head, bile duct, and duodenum: evaluation by computed tomography during arteriography[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Blood supply to the peripancreatic region is derived from the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries, complementary to each other. Cohort analytic study. Tertiary care public hospital. Computed tomography (CT) during superior mesenteric artery arteriography (SMAA-CT) and during celiac artery arteriography (CEAA-CT), in which a catheter tip was inserted into the common hepatic or gastroduodenal artery, was performed in 25 patients. Distribution and correlation of these areas of marked enhancement on SMAA-CT and CEAA-CT were analyzed. The right cephalic part of the pancreatic head that is derived from the dorsal bud was enhanced on CEAA-CT, and the left caudal part of the pancreatic head that is derived from the ventral bud was enhanced on SMAA-CT. Blood supply to the intrapancreatic bile duct, including the ampulla of Vater, is derived from the CEA. The boundary between the areas of the duodenum supplied from the CEA and SMA was in the second or third portion. The pancreatic head can be separated into 2 segments by the arterial supply, and each segment may be removed separately.Archives of Surgery 11/1999; 134(10):1086-90. · 4.93 Impact Factor
Article: Haemodynamic changes in non-alcoholic (viral) liver cirrhosis studied by computed tomography (CT) arterial portography and CT arteriography[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate haemodynamic and vascular changes in non-alcoholic (viral) cirrhosis on conventional computed tomography (CT), CT arteriography (CTA) and CT arterial portography (CTAP), and to determine the cause of the observed reticular stain on angiography. Using surgically resected liver specimens from 31 patients with viral hepatitis associated hepatocellular carcinoma, images of conventional CT, CTA, CTAP and the sinusoidal phase of hepatic arteriography were retrospectively analysed and compared with pathology of the non-cancerous portion of the liver. Computed tomography arteriography showed inhomogeneous enhancement (diffuse, low-density nodules) in a total of 16 samples (52%); in eight of 10 (80%) cirrhotic livers, three of six (50%) precirrhotic livers, five of 12 (42%) livers with chronic active hepatitis and none of three with no active liver disease. The frequency of inhomogeneous enhancement became significantly higher with increasing severity of parenchymal damage (P < 0.05). In contrast, conventional CT and CTAP showed homogeneous enhancement in all 31 (100%) patients. There was no correlation between inhomogeneous enhancement on CTA and reticular staining on sinusoidal-phase hepatic angiograms. Inhomogeneous enhancement was frequently seen in patients with hepatitis B surface antigen and/or anti-hepatitis C virus antibody compared with those without them (P < 0.05). The CTA was much more sensitive in detecting haemodynamic changes in the cirrhotic liver than CTAP, conventional CT and sinusoidal-phased hepatic angiography. Further study is required to clarify the mechanism of inhomogeneous enhancement on CTA and homogeneous enhancement on CTAP seen in cirrhosis.Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology 10/1999; 14(9):908-14.

Cliff Lee was down-right filthy Wednesday night during his Philadelphia Phillies' 6-1 victory in Game 1 of the World Series. The placid southpaw, donning a nasty spike curveball, lasted all night long.
Lee calmly allowed six hits and just one run, which didn't even appear in the box score until a Jimmy Rollins throwing error allowed Derek Jeter to cross the plate with one out in the ninth inning.
Oh yeah, and he struck out ten New York Yankees, owners of the most potent lineup in baseball.
Chase Utley wasn't so bad either. The Phillies second baseman nailed solo shots off CC Sabathia in the third and sixth innings, while first baseman Ryan Howard doubled twice and drove in the final run. Chutley stands alone as the only left-handed hitter to go deep off Sabathia at the New Yankee Stadium this season, proving to be the only run support General Lee really needed.
CC surrendered four hits over seven innings before giving way to the Yankees bullpen, who shelled out four runs on their own.
Fun Fact: The only other time Cy Young Award winners (back-to-back, no less) met in the World Series opener was back in 1995 when Cleveland's Orel Hershiser faced Atlanta's Greg Maddux.
Jeter saw some production at the plate, going 3-for-4 with a run scored, but Johnny Damon, Jorge Posada and Hideki Matsui were the only other Pinstripers to reach base. Alex Rodriguez, reluctantly crowned by the media the "New Mr. October" following his clutch performances through the 2009 playoffs went hitless with three whiffs in his Fall Classic debut.
The Yanks may be as much as a -195 series favorite, but I'm going with J-Roll's prediction of the Phils in five. Sportsbook.com currently has a ridiculous list of props available, if you're looking to expand past simply betting on the outcome of the series, or one game in particular.
Old schooler Pedro Martinez will take the hill for the Phillies against righty A.J. Burnett in Game 2 Thursday night, airing at 7:57pm ET on FOX.Tweet

Theoretical and empirical work has explored individual child and parent, dyadic (parent-child interaction), and family-level factors; however, prior research has largely examined their influence on child pain in isolation from one another. This dissertation used a multi-informant multi-method design and dyadic analysis to advance our understanding of child and parent catastrophizing (Paper 1) and family functioning (Paper 2) in children's pain, as modeled using experimental pain. Participants included 171 community-based dyads comprised of one child 8-12 years old (89 girls) and one parent (135 mothers). Parent-child dyads completed two lab-based interaction tasks together in randomized counterbalanced order, including the child's completion of a cold pressor task (CPT) and a conflict discussion task. Children and parents reported on their trait and state pain catastrophizing about the child's pain, trait anxiety, situational distress, family functioning, and ratings of child pain intensity and unpleasantness. Child pain tolerance was also recorded. Micro-observational coding of parent and child verbalizations during the CPT captured parent attending, non-attending, and other talk, and child symptom complaints and other talk. Macro-observational coding during the conflict discussion task assessed aspects of family functioning. The actor-partner interdependence model and hierarchical multiple regressions explored intra- and inter-personal contributions to child pain. Paper 1: Results indicated that higher parent and child trait and/or state pain catastrophizing predicted their own ratings of greater child pain, with child state pain catastrophizing additionally influencing parent ratings. Parent and child state pain catastrophizing interacted significantly to influence child symptom complaints, including more child symptom complaints in dyads with low child and high parent pain catastrophizing. Paper 2: Results indicated no relation between family functioning and child pain outcomes. Poorer reported family functioning predicted greater child and parent trait anxiety and pain catastrophizing, and parent situational distress. Aspects of observed family functioning predicted child symptom complaints and other talk. The use of observational methodology and dyadic analysis revealed newly identified interpersonal influences of parent and family factors on children's verbal pain behaviours, and on parent perceptions of child pain and parent trait and state coping with child pain. Ecosystem Services, Context and the Social Basis for Conservation: The Case of Insect Pollination Benefits to Lowbush Blueberry Melathopoulo, Andony http://hdl.handle.net/10222/64068 2015-10-04T04:16:04Z Ecosystem Services, Context and the Social Basis for Conservation: The Case of Insect Pollination Benefits to Lowbush Blueberry Melathopoulo, Andony The conservation of ecosystems is increasingly justified on the basis of the human welfare they generate. Since many of the "services" supplied by ecosystems are not currently captured in markets, advocates of ecosystem service value (ESV) assert that the social basis for conservation can be revealed through estimating the hidden welfare benefits. But, despite a number of ESV-inspired initiatives, global ecological degradation continues to accelerate, suggesting that the social basis for conservation remains elusive. I locate the possibility for conservation in the present through a critique of ESV. I begin by focusing on methodological problems associated with a well-defined ecosystem service: insect pollination of agricultural crops. My review of global scale pollinator valuations indicates that current efforts fail to: 1) decouple contributions of wild pollinator species (i.e., the focus of conservation) from those of managed species, 2) adequately assess pollinator yield benefits relative to the dynamic and heterogeneous character of agricultural production, and 3) consider the complex character of agricultural commodity markets leading to an exaggeration of the impact of pollinator declines on agricultural prices. Next, I tested the assumption that yield in highly pollinator-dependent crops is strictly pollen limited through an empirical study of lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium). Experimentally I demonstrate that although berry set is related to pollinator abundance, this is only the case if pests and diseases are controlled. Moreover, a two-year multivariate study of berry set and yield in commercial fields demonstrates that variation in pollinator visitation rate has an inconsistent effect on berry set and is clearly governed by other agronomic factors. My initial focus on the methodological shortcomings of ESV implies that conservation would advance if only the technical deficiencies of current ESV calculations were addressed. Yet it is precisely this focus on the technical dimensions of ESV methodology that disconnects the practice of valuation from the various ways it is presently taken up in society. After reviewing various criticisms of ESV, I develop a critical theory approach that stipulates that the possibility for conservation cannot be separated from the social context that presently gives rise to ESV. Zinc-Silicate Glasses for Transarterial Chemoembolization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Kilcup, Nancy http://hdl.handle.net/10222/63945 2015-09-30T04:17:56Z Zinc-Silicate Glasses for Transarterial Chemoembolization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Kilcup, Nancy Drug eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) has emerged as the gold standard therapy for patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma, the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Presently, DEB-TACE procedures are limited by two factors: (i) particles are radiolucent, making it impossible to determine spatial-temporal distribution within target tissues thus limiting optimum therapy, and (ii) conventional bead technologies require drug pre-loading, which is logistically challenging. The research presented herein examines these material limitations through two different approaches. The first approach is based on the idea that systems can be optimized for an application by combining multiple components, where each component fulfills a specific role. Towards this end, drug preloaded radiopaque composite embolic microspheres were prepared from polylactic-co-glycolic acid, radiopaque zinc-silicate glass and doxorubicin. Using a design of experiments approach the composition was optimized to provide for maximum radiopacity while drug release was controlled over seven days. The second approach is one of simplicity and reflects the emerging biomaterial design paradigm that seeks to elicit desired host responses. In this sense therapeutic inorganic ions (TII) released from biomedical glasses are known to promote hard tissue repair and regeneration by triggering angiogenesis and osteogenesis. In DEB-TACE, the desired host response is cell death. Within this framework, two zinc-silicate systems were prepared containing lanthanum and vanadium since these elements are known to have anticancer behavior. The composition-structure-property-function relationships were evaluated based on substitution of lanthanum or vanadium into the glass network. Critically, the ion release capabilities were evaluated in simulated physiological conditions. Increased lanthanum did not dramatically alter the structure of the glass but it did increase the hydrolytic stability of the glasses. Increased vanadium caused polymerization of the Si-network and simultaneously decreased its hydrolytic stability resulting in significant amounts of vanadium release. Exposure of HepG2 cells to vanadium containing extracts resulted in concentration dependent apoptotic cell death. Biomedical glasses have potential in applications beyond hard tissue repair and regeneration, providing a radiopaque, drug preloaded alternative to existing DEB-TACE materials and a simple means for vectored delivery of TII.

Self-efficacy (SE) is central to behavior change, and different behavior change theories propose a range of targeted strategies and action plans to gradually induce behavior adjustments amongst patients so that they are able to achieve efficacy in self-management of their condition. Social cognitive theory (SCT) is a comprehensive behavior change theory that proposes self-efficacy construct as central to behavior change. In this thesis, we have taken a knowledge management approach to computerize specialized self-efficacy constructs stipulated by SCT to formulate a high-level SCT knowledge model. We have collected and computerized behavior change content targeting healthy living and physical activity. Semantic web technologies have been used to develop a SCT ontology and SWRL rules to infer personalized self-management plans based on a given patient profile. We present formative evaluation of the clinical correctness and relevance of the generated personalized action plans for a range of test patient profiles.

Congratulations to Kettering Board of Education President, Lori Simms Parks, who was honored recently at Miami Valley Hospital Foundation's "Champions of Hope" Gala.
This is a celebration "honoring remarkable people and their achievements in the fight against cancer," and salutes the efforts of a courageous survivor, an outstanding medical professional, a person of inspiration and an extraordinary caregiver.
Simms-Parks was honored as the 2015 Champions of Hope Outstanding Caregiver. View video here of her service as a caregiver to her good friend that earned Simms Parks this honor.
In May, the Kettering City School District contracted with Fallon Research and Communications, Inc. to conduct a community survey, and Paul Fallon of Fallon Research and Communications, Inc., attended a Kettering Board of Education meeting in late August to present the results of the survey to the board.
According to Scott Inskeep, superintendent of the Kettering Schools, the district had not conducted a survey in a number of years. "It is good practice for a school district to survey its residents every couple of years, and to have it done by a reputable firm that specializes in doing school surveys," says Inskeep.
I hope everyone has had a great start to the school year. Please visit our website on a consistent basis for announcements and updates. Below is a newsletter from Fairmont High School and Kettering City School District. Have a great fall season!
Congratulations to Fairmont Career Tech Center principal, Liz Jensen, the entire Fairmont CTC staff and to our CTC students!
The State of Ohio released the latest State Report Card for Career Tech Centers, and the Kettering-Centerville-Oakwood Career Technical Planning District once again earned all "As" on the Report Card.

Seriously all that establishes is that Janeway didn't stop and ask directions, hell even with all the big jumps Voyager made they never made it out of the Delta Quadrant.
What, was Voyager just flying around in a giant circle for 7 years?
You really don't know that much about Voyager do you. Their jumps subtracted more than 30 years of that 70 year total that they were looking for in the beginning. And by the way, they always knew the way home, they just didn't know what they would find along their way. Why should anyone ask for directions when they knew the right direction. Apparently Voyager flew a relatively direct rout to the federation and were very close to the Delta / Beta division line by the time of "Endgame."
Flexibility and inflexibility are both assets when you use them right and Janeway did.

Cumbria thug who loves violence facing life behind bars
Last updated at 12:06, Monday, 20 February 2012
A Workington thug who boasted about his love of violence has been warned he could spend most of his life in prison.
Dean Winder, 20, told a probation officer that he would not stop his violent behaviour just because he was due in court charged with affray.
He boasted that he "explicitly supports the use of violence" and would get involved in it in the future, Carlisle Crown Court heard
And he showed no remorse for deliberately going out looking for trouble and being involved in an incident in which more than a dozen men chased a gang of younger teenagers down a street in West Cumbria, injuring two of them.
The judge, Recorder John Murray, told him that with such an attitude he was "not far short" of being classed as a "dangerous offender " – a designation that could one day earn him an indefinite prison sentence.
Mr Murray told him: "I am very concerned about the things you said to the probation officer.
"If you continue to express such views all that is going to happen to you is that you will sentence yourself to life imprisonment by instalments.
"Either that or you will do something so serious that the courts will have no alternative but to lock you up for a period without end."
Winder, of Newlands Gardens, Workington, pleaded guilty to a charge of affray and was given a four-month prison sentence, suspended for a year.
He was also ordered to do 100 hours unpaid community work and put under a curfew to keep him indoors at home every night for the next three months.
His friend Sean Slack, who has just turned 18 and also lives in Newlands Gardens, was given four months in a young offenders institution, suspended for a year, after pleading guilty to causing actual bodily harm to a 17-year-old he punched in the face, knocking out two of his teeth.
He too was ordered to do 100 hours unpaid community work and put under a night-time curfew for the next three months.
A 17-year-old, who can't be named because of his age, was made subject to a 12-month youth rehabilitation order and put under a night-time curfew for three months.
Prosecutor Dick Binstead told the court the charges arose from an incident in which a group of men, including all three defendants, chased the younger boys, pelting them with rocks and stones, in Lorton Avenue, Workington, on the evening of June 17 last year.
The judge described the incident as "ugly, unpleasant and outrageous."
